Virtual Information Security Officer (VISO) Services

As organizations grow quickly, they usually face inquiries from customers, insurance providers, risk auditors, and more, seeking assurance regarding the presence of a dedicated Chief Information Security Officer (CISO). When the finances are tight in some situations, hiring a CISO is impossible. In such cases, the solution often lies in engaging professional IT security consulting providers, such as Tanner Security, to fulfill the crucial role of a Virtual Chief Information Security Officer (vCISO), Virtual Information Security Officer (VISO), or Virtual Information Security Compliance Officer (VISCO) to help businesses enhance their IT strategy and security posture. The outsourced individual is responsible for cybersecurity risk.

Our vISO services present a unique hybrid approach. We dedicate an experienced Information Security Professional with seasoned security management experience to your team to fulfill this internal function. The partnership extends to overseeing your cybersecurity program’s design, development, and integration, aligning it with your specific organizational goals and needs.

By opting for a vISO, you can meet the ever-common security requirement of having an Information Security Officer (ISO) in place, benefiting from our expert guidance and knowledge, all while realizing cost savings associated with a full-time internal position. Collaboratively, we work closely with your management team, board, and other stakeholders to craft a strategic vision, allocate resources, draft information security policies, and establish protocols essential for cultivating and sustaining an effective and tailored security program for your business.
